Goodbye AT&T; Hello Helium

in LeoFinance10 months ago (edited)

Trapped in the clutches of AT&T, I was paying a hefty $82 monthly fee for limited data and a plethora of hidden charges - their coverage was pretty nice in my area, though. But just yesterday, I remembered that Helium Mobile was a thing, so I made the switch. Let me tell you, it's been a transformative experience for my phone bill.

So, why Helium?

Well, imagine slashing your phone bill by a staggering 76%! With Helium, I now enjoy a modest $20 monthly expense for unlimited talk, text, and data. That's an extra $744 annually in my pocket to save, invest, or throw out at the next meme coin that gets shilled... I, for one, may even just start throwing it at Wrestling Organization Online or Splinterlands. Only time will tell.

Signal Strength Soaring with a Crypto Cherry on Top

Helium boasts nationwide 5G coverage, exceeding expectations even in my signal-deprived hometown in Southeastern, KY. But the real coup de grâce? Their extensive network of hotspots further strengthens connectivity. As an added bonus, for simply allowing them to anonymously leverage my location data for network improvement, I earn MOBILE tokens daily. As of now, I'm accumulating roughly at least $2 of MOBILE daily, meaning this phone plan practically pays for itself within 10 days!

Speaking of paying for itself, you can literally pay your phone bill, through the Helium Mobile app, with your earned Mobile from mapping. I might just be saving the full $984 a year with this.

Privacy Concerns?

Understandably, data sharing and crypto might raise concerns. However, Helium utilizes anonymized and encrypted location data, with complete control over what I share. I can deny them location access if I so choose. At the end of the day, I reap the benefits without compromising my privacy. Additionally, the absence of contracts allows for seamless switching using your eSIM, should you have a change of heart. It took about 5 minutes for me to switch from AT&T through Helium's eSim.

So, if You're Like Me...

Helium deserves your exploration. Visit their website to confirm coverage in your area. You might be surprised by the lucrative savings (and free crypto) awaiting you.

I was happy reading this until I got to the point that says "Helium Mobile is only available in The United States right now", hehehe.

I hope they begin to expand their coverage to reach Africa soon. Thank you for sharing.

I hope they are able to spread out of the USA too. They spread all over the world with their HNT hotspots (now iot hotspots) and I expect Mobile will follow suit soon as well.

Here's hoping :)

Now, if only they offered home internet services. I am sick to death of xfinity

Haha, maybe one day they will. I'm sick of Spectrum but locked in thanks to my apartment complex.

A week with their phone plan and I'm in love btw. Only $3 off from it paying for itself this first month :)

I had Spectrum for just over a year, and hated every second. That was phone AND internet.
ABYSMAL service and worse support. Like you, I was locked in but it was city wide for some reason
